Zoophilia Makes Most People Want To Throw Up

Zoophilia is a recent term of psychology that defines bestiality or the sexual intercourse of a human with an animal. While the documented cases of zoophilia are mostly centered around mentally troubled individuals to be sure, the documentation on the subject is growing. There are many people who actually prefer to have sexual activity with animals. Most people are decidedly disgusted by the idea of zoophilia because it goes against the very idea of sex with animals for more than physical reasons but for ethical reasons as well. It has only been more recently that psychology has termed the act of sex with animals as a legitimate research subject.

The research performed about zoophilia shows that the actual number of people engaged in the acts of sex with animals is less than 3% of the population. The research also shows that most of the people engaged in zoophilia are people living around or near farms where animals are numerous. However sexual fantasies about zoophilia can occur in people who do not wish to experience the actual event. It is just a fantasy that provides an escape from reality as well as cultural restrictions and judgment. The problem with humans and animals having sex is the infections that are transmitted from animals to humans. Some of these diseases are exposed to humans by the contact of semen, vaginal fluids, urine, saliva, feces or blood of animals. For example brucellosis q fever and other types of sicknesses are some afflictions to as well as allergic reactions, trampling, bites or other form of trauma that can occur because an animal does not want the attention.

Zoophilia is against the law in almost every jurisdiction of the world. Other places outlaw the mistreatment of animals without specific mention of animal sexuality; however one can speculate that these acts must be included. Zoophilia is outlawed in Canada, the Netherlands, and thirty one states of the United States, Australia and new Zealand as well as the united kingdom. While most of the other countries of the world fall in between and in some places actually allow zoophilia, the same countries prohibit the pictures or videos of such acts from distributed.
